SURREY, BC, March 11, 2013 /CNW/ - Central City Brewers + Distillers
(CCBD) announce their inaugural program dedicated to raise $75,000 for
autism. Funds go directly to Canucks Autism Network (CAN) and Autism
Spectrum Disorders Canadian-American Research Consortium (ASD-CARC).
The program includes a limited release of CCBD's award-winning Imperial
IPA, in which $5 per bottle goes to ASD-CARC. Sales from limited
edition glassware, from Central City's retail operations, and from the
inaugural Auction & Dinner will go to CAN.
The Auction and Dinner will be held April 13th at Central City Brewpub +
restaurant. Auction items include Canucks tickets, team jerseys, bikes,
and many other great items.
"When we learned my son Callum had autism, we discovered how little is
known about it and how much support is needed for a child on the
spectrum. Research is critical to finding a cure, as are accessible
programs for children and families living with autism that cannot
afford the amount of care needed for a child with autism", says Darryll
Frost, President.
A web page dedicated to the program summarizes program details. The page
will be found at centralcitybrewing.com/autism.
